The white gazebo by the lakeside, of course, was the one often used by students during social lessons.

Due to the sunset, the gazebo, soaked in a reddish glow, was serene and beautiful with no other students around.

The last summer rose, still barely attached to the stem, nodded gracefully like a painting. The cry of the first autumn insect, which had grown early in the surrounding bushes, flowed out.

Valentine was leaning against one side of the gazebo. Her fresh face brightened as she saw Nellis approaching.

“Unnie!”

“Valentine.”

Nellis called that name familiarly, as if it were something she had done countless times before. There was no hint of hatred. Showing such emotions now wouldn’t be helpful.

“You came.”

Valentine grabbed the edge of her skirt and gracefully descended from the gazebo. Then, she smiled widely at Nellis, who also smiled back.

“You wanted to meet, so I came.”

“Earlier, I thought, what if unnie got angry and didn’t come because of my rude behavior.”

In her charming voice, Nellis chuckled as if finding it bland. She must have thought such a thing.

“Unlikely. You could have acted the same way you did at home, after all.”

The meaning of that statement was essentially questioning whether Valentine behaved poorly at home and continued to do so outside.

Although not on the dull side, Valentine’s face, which didn’t usually misinterpret words, slightly stiffened and then relaxed. She hugged Nellis’s right arm and affectionately spoke.

“It’s not like I was that young. Unnie, you advanced to the upper class lessons as soon as you entered last year, right? How are you so smart? Our brother praised you a lot.”

“Thank you. It’s not anything remarkable. Valentine is the really smart one.”

“Oh, how would unnie know that?”

“You know well.”

That cunning. Patience. Thoroughness.

Nellis only realized just before her death that Valentine, whom she had known since childhood, had such qualities.

How could she not know that Valentine was malicious? Even in Nellis’s previous life, Valentine had disliked her from the time of enrollment and had successfully tormented her even before adoption.

However, Nellis had never thought of Valentine as smart even once. She was such a child who expressed her emotions freely.

But anyone, when examined closely, reveals a new side. Even Valentine, who seemed to live openly without hiding anything, hadn’t concealed her intention to abandon Nellis once everything was over.

For a moment, Nellis’s gaze toward Valentine almost became sinister. However, Nellis soon managed to rein in her emotions, putting on an innocent and virtuous expression.

“But where are we going for dinner? If you tell me to come to your dorm, I would have gone.”

Actually, Valentine was holding Nellis’s arm and walking in a specific direction. Valentine, with her cute round sky-blue eyes sparkling, said.

“You can’t see the lake from the dorm. I rented a nice place. Today, as a commemoration of us becoming close, let’s have dinner alone.”

“Sure, that sounds good. By the way, you’re alone. Where’s the maid? It’s not good to be out alone at this hour.”

Nellis mentioned a fact she had known since earlier as if realizing it just now. Valentine grinned. The evening play of early autumn had completely dyed her silver hair. The sun was about to set soon.

“Don’t worry. They’re all preparing for the meal. I came out to welcome you.”

“Thank you.”

Nellis responded courteously at first, but a hint of sarcasm seeped out in her short response. Valentine’s gaze rose for a moment but returned to normal.

The two arrived at a small wooden house in a corner of the lakeside. Although the house had lights on inside, there was no audible sound, and there was no smell of food.

The front door was tightly closed, but the door to the warehouse, which seemed to be directly connected to the house, was slightly ajar.
It was an incident that had already happened once. Therefore, when Valentine smiled and opened her mouth, Neris could anticipate the next words.

“Looks like everyone is busy preparing, and their minds are elsewhere. We should go in through that side door.”

“If a noble young lady goes to such a place, is it appropriate?”

“Well, there’s no choice. If we go in, I’ll have to scold Delma.”

Valentine’s eyes truly sparkled. The sun was gradually setting, and the sky was rapidly turning a deep blue.

Neris warmly smiled.

“That’s right.”

“Let’s go, unnie.”

Valentine subtly let go of Neris’s arm.

Neris paused for a moment at the entrance of the dark warehouse with no light, briefly glancing at the main gate. Seeing Valentine looking like she was going to enter, Valentine, feeling uneasy, subtly lifted her foot towards the warehouse, as if telling her to go in first.

“Unnie, even I, the daughter of a duke, come in here. What’s there to be afraid of? Look, the world isn’t collapsing, right?”

Perhaps due to anxiety, her true colors showed a bit, but it seemed that Valentine was unaware of this fact. Neris had the same expression as before, and that seemed to reassure Valentine.

My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)

Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.

Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.

Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.

“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”

Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.

A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.

“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”

Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?

As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.

Gu Sui: “……”

He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?

Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.

Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.

Hmm… she looked a little familiar.

It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.

Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.

“Finally, I found you.”
